Rick Ross Drops Direct Death Threat Against Donald Trump
Rick Ross Drops Direct Death Threat Against Donald Trump following his presidency elect victory. US Secret Service officials may be investigating rapper Rick Ross following a direct death threat against Donald Trump. The issue surrounds the YouTube release of Ross’ latest video, ‘Free Enterprise,’ according to details shared Monday with Digital Music News.
These lyrics have been clearly construed as a death threat by multiple observers, though the policy of the US Secret Service is never to discuss ongoing investigations. The video was uploaded on November 9th, less than 24 hours after Trump won the presidency. In the song, Ross explicitly discusses killing the President-Elect. This is the portion of the song in question:
“Assassinate Trump like I’m Zimmerman
Now accept these words as they came from Eminem
Democratic Party sentenced to the pendulum
Killing them, I voted for Andre Benjamin.”
Here’s the clip. The lyrics in question come at about 2:30.
